About Your Hosts
Hey, We’re Georgie and Libby Trickett
TWO SISTERS-IN-LAW AND great mates WHO LOVE SPORT - AND WANT YOU TO LOVE IT TOO
We talk about sport from a real life lens, sharing our honest personal takes in a way that feels relatable and interesting even for ‘sportish’ people who aren’t elite athletes.
We’re firmly in the camp of ‘not taking ourselves too seriously.’ (No sports snobbery here).
And we’re always curious, which means we don’t just cover the same old stuff. We dive right in, happy to ask all the silly questions.
We talk about a variety of sports – not just NRL and AFL, but the grassroots stories that highlight the broader experience of sport.
Think outside-of-the mainstream stuff like Nippers programs (designed for special needs families), Muslim women’s cycling programs, 10 year old girls entering a team in a boys’ AFL competition, adventure athletes and yep, extreme sports (because while we could never be extreme, we can't stop watching).
In short: we’re here to help you feel proud to call yourself ‘sportish’.

So much joy and laughter
Love the way Georgie and Libby go about delivering this weekly wrap of sport. It brings out the joy of sport and has me laughing along with them throughout every episode. Awesome way to get your sporting fix in a fun and enjoyable way. Can’t wait for the next episode and to discover another little known sport or ultra athlete.

My type of sports coverage
Love my sports hit from these smart funny women. Perfect for my drive. Lots of laughter, humanity, and realness (oh and the stats from Georgie). Refreshing to hear from two women who clearly love sport, but make it digestible and accessible. Thanks Team Trickett!
